== Problem ==
 
By accessing the collection <code>inst01hr_3d_T_Cv</code> via the OPeNDAP server
https://opendap.nccs.nasa.gov/dods/OSSE/G5NR/Ganymed/7km


First, we ensure that out NetCDF-4 library has been built with Fortran, HDF5 and OPeNDAP support. All three queries
we want to read the surface temperature data inside the box bound by latitudes 25<sup>o</sup>N, 50<sup>o</sup>N and longitudes -130<sup>o</sup>W, -65<sup>o</sup>W for 2006/Sep/18, 9z and compute its min/max.


== Solution ==
First, we ensure that our NetCDF-4 library has been built with Fortran and OPeNDAP support. If both the queries
  > nc-config --has-f90
  > nc-config --has-f90
> nc-config --has-hdf5
  > nc-config --has-dap
  > nc-config --has-dap


should return yes.
return "yes", we have a compatible NetCDF-4 library. Here <code>nc-config</code> is a utility bundled with NetCDF-4 package.


== Read downloaded nc4 file ==
The metadata for the collection <code>inst01hr_3d_T_Cv</code> is available at
https://opendap.nccs.nasa.gov/dods/OSSE/G5NR/Ganymed/7km/0.5000_deg/inst/inst01hr_3d_T_Cv.info


Download the collection inst01hr_3d_T_Cv for 2006-Sep-18/0900z as described [[G5NR Data Access Guide#ftp (global data)|here]]. The downloaded file is <code>c1440_NR.inst01hr_3d_T_Cv.20060918_0900z.nc4</code>. The program to read this file is
==== Code ====
This code accesses the collection <code>inst01hr_3d_T_Cv</code> from the OPeNDAP server, reads a subset of the temperature data (all levels inside the bounding box specified above) and computes its max/min.


==== Code ====
NOTE:
# Instead of reading a downloaded NetCDF-4 file, we read an OPeNDAP URL.
# While in the downloaded file, the temperature variable appears in the uppercase (T), on the OPeNDAP server, this variable is in lowercase. This is reflected in the call to <code>nf90_inq_varid</code>.
# Via the OPeNDAP URL, we now have access to all times for which data exists. The hourly <code>inst</code> files are available starting at 2005/15/15, 2200z. Our desired time, 2006/09/18, 0900z is then the 11772<sup>th</sup> step.

# File Spec: [[File:G5NR-Ganymed-7km FileSpec-ON6-V1.0.pdf]]
# [[Recipe: Fortran program to read data from downloaded file]]


The three (3) differences from the case where an individual downloaded file was being read are
== No Warranty ==
# <code>T_file</code>: Instead of reading a downloaded NetCDF-4 file, we read an OPeNDAP URL.
# <code>start</code>: Via the OPeNDAP URL, we can now access all time levels. The hourly <code>inst</code> files are available starting at 2005/15/15 2200z. Our desired time, 2006/09/18 0900z is then the 11772<sup>th</sup> file.
# <code>nf90_inq_varid</code>: On the OPeNDAP servers, the variables are typically lowercase (see http://opendap.nccs.nasa.gov:9090/dods/OSSE/GEOS-5.12/BETA9/0.5000_deg/inst/inst01hr_3d_T_Cv) as opposed to the file where the variables name is in uppercase. This is reflected in the call to nf90_inq_varid.
